Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Aching, like I do, for love to last forever
Baby, please come home
The second that I saw you my heart came crashing down
Baby, please come home

I'm hanging on
I can't breathe without you
I'm hanging on
I can't breathe without you
Baby, please come home

You're all I've got
I can't breathe without you

Yeah, I know...I know your heart is breaking
My heart is aching
Baby, you're golden
Yeah, I know...I know your heart is breaking
My heart is breaking
Baby, you're golden

I can't breathe without you (hanging on)
I can't breathe without you
Baby, please come home
I can't breathe without you
The second that I saw you

Baby, you're golden
Baby, you're golden
